MTL - Evolved From Polluting the World-Chapter 7 "2 creatures"
The safe passage of the unit building has been blocked by relevant personnel, and access is not allowed.
In the corridor outside the warehouse room on the first floor, Zhou Sibai looked at the skinny eight-legged frog man on the ground and fell into contemplation.
After losing the flesh and blood, the dry torso looked more like a "millipede". From the distribution of facial bones and the degree of pulling on the skin, Zhou Sibai guessed that he experienced great panic before his death.
Why?
What exactly happened to die with no flesh and blood left?
He hissed a breath of cold air, and the color of his pupils showed fleeting black swirls, and then his brows furrowed deeper.
"The 'third eye' can't detect it..."
"Third Eye" is his evolutionary talent, a very rare spiritual talent with special functions. Capable of capturing remnants of consciousness, peeping at conscious activity...
The "third eye" cannot detect any traces of consciousness. In Zhou Sibai's cognition, there are generally only two situations:
1: More powerful talent cover up;
Two: There is no trace of consciousness at all.
The Eight-legged Frog Man had just died, so it stands to reason that there are no traces of consciousness left.
Did someone cover up the truth?
Zhou Sibai was silent for a moment, and then used his communication watch to contact the sentry lurking here to monitor Qiao Xun.
Soon, a man in black clothes that completely covered his skin walked out of the darkness.
Zhou Sibai asked:
"What happened here?"
The sentinel replied:
"The suspected surveillance target 'Qiao Xun' killed the polluted creature code-named 'Eight-legged Frog Man'."
"Kill?"
The sentry nodded, then pressed his right index finger on his temple, and a string of bioelectric waves carrying memories was transmitted to Zhou Sibai's communication watch.
This is the sentinel's ability to transmit sensory memories to electronic devices in the form of bioelectric waves.
On the communication watch, the picture is the first person of this sentinel.
The dialogue and fight between Qiao Xun and the eight-legged frogman are presented above, and Zhou Sibai can clearly see them.
But at a certain period of time, when Qiao Xun devoured the eight-legged frog man, the sound of the video became very weak, and the picture quality was even more blurred than the standard definition of ordinary video websites. All but screeching murmurs and moving patches of color can be heard.
Zhou Sibai asked:
"Why is it so vague?"
The sentinel replied:
"My senses were disturbed, and I couldn't feel the clear picture and sound. After the senses recovered, I only saw the back of the surveillance target 'Qiao Xun' leaving, and the mummified corpse of the eight-legged frog man."
Zhou Sibai repeatedly watched the fragment where the picture became very blurred. From the color distribution, it was Qiao Xun who was pressed to the ground and was at a disadvantage.
But for some reason, after the picture was clear, the eight-legged frogman had already turned into a mummified corpse.
His eyes were deep, and a battle he had seen before appeared unnaturally in his mind. It was a battle between a tainted creature that evolved the talent of phagocytosis and a warrior. In the end, the tainted creature devoured the warrior's flesh and blood.
The endgame is very similar to the current situation.
"Devouring talent..."
Will Qiao Xun awaken this talent?
Zhou Sibai frowned deeply. After thinking about it, he shook his head, how could it be, this kind of talent can only be possessed by polluting creatures. Qiao Xun's pollution value was only checked a few hours ago, and it was 0. Even if it was polluted within a few hours, it would not It may have suddenly become so powerful that it can directly devour an eight-legged frog man who cannot be restrained by the control team.
What still puzzled him was why there was no residual consciousness in the body of the eight-legged frogman.
After thinking about it for a while, there was no sign of anything. After Zhou Sibai ordered the control team to quickly clean the scene, he went to Qiao Xun's house alone.
…
Qiao Xun's body temperature is now very high, exceeding 45°C, and the skin on his body is flushed red, as if he had deliberately applied red paint. It pained him so much that it felt like his head was being cooked in a boiler.
The average human body temperature is continuously higher than 40 ℃, and it is easy to endanger life. As for the body temperature of 45 ℃, it is a number that only appears briefly in the incinerator.
Qiao Xun also knew that the current self should not be considered a normal person. He clearly felt that his body was digesting the flesh and blood of the eight-legged frog man he had just swallowed.
To be honest, devouring flesh and blood makes him feel sick, which is unacceptable both physically and psychologically as a person. But there was nothing to do. The situation was so dangerous at the time, and the only way to save lives was that.
Although the eight-legged frog man was sucked into a mummified corpse, the change in Qiao Xun's weight was only at the level of "drinking half a bottle of water".
He was lying on the sofa, and the broken Tang knife was placed on the coffee table in front.
Gradually, he felt that he seemed to be digesting not only the flesh and blood of the eight-legged frogman, but also the "ability" he possessed, let's just say that.
As far as the intuitive feeling of fighting the eight-legged frog man before, he has the ability to be "extremely fast", "extremely strong body control", and a spiritual ability similar to ecstasy.
But in the specific digestion process, Qiao Xun's cognition gradually became clear. These cognitions come from the digestion of the consciousness of the eight-legged frog man.
The messy information flashed in his mind, and eventually a lot of useless information was strangled and "deleted", leaving only the content about his abilities.
This made Qiao Xun regretful. He thought he could get more information about "metal disease". It seems that those things can only be touched bit by bit afterward.
However, this may not be such a bad thing. Because just digesting the ability of the eight-legged frogman made him feel like his head was about to crack, and if he digested more complicated information, it might explode directly.
The CPU is used in the most appropriate place.
In the end, a talent named "amphibian" appeared in Qiao Xun's cognition—
The second-order talent of Ascension Long Rank: "Amphibian";
There is also the first-order talent of Ascension Long Rank: "Mi Tan".
The former is the main advanced talent of the eight-legged frogman, and the latter is the auxiliary talent. This distinction is equivalent to a main job and a part-time job.
The talent of "amphibious creatures", as the main advanced talent, can be grown, but Qiao Xun's current understanding of digested is very limited, and he is not clear about the specifics. He only knows the characteristic of "can grow".
This is not to say that the eight-legged frogman is an amphibian, but as a person, he has acquired such a talent and possessed the ability of an amphibian—
Amphibious, thermoregulation, thermal sensation, etc.
This is a talent with many advanced abilities. But the male appearance of the eight-legged frog is majoring in "poison dart frog" and "millipede".
"The millipedes don't seem to be amphibians..."
For the time being, Qiao Xun doesn't understand the relationship.
Another talent "Mi Tan" is indeed as he guessed, a spiritual talent that can confuse people's senses and consciousness.
After digesting these two talents, Qiao Xun felt amazing. Just like in the bamboo forest in the early morning, UU reading www.uukanshu.com saw bamboo shoots sprout after the rain.
He found that his body did not have bulging eyes like the eight-legged frog man, and his tongue became thin and long, but he had mastered the relevant abilities.
Increased field of view, increased environmental sensitivity...
"It seems that my body's digestion is the kind of digestion that 'take the essence and remove the dross'."
Not bad.
Qiao Xun still likes his current form even more. It is hard to accept that he is going to look strange.
Through the digestion of the eight-legged frog man, Qiao Xun also knew that the pink bug he devoured before should also be an amphibian contaminant, so he could obtain "thermoregulation", "sensory enhancement", "exercise" capacity enhancement” etc.
The digestion of the talent "Amphibian" only makes these abilities a step further, and the talent "Mitan" can be regarded as a newly acquired ability.
In this way, the harvest is still quite large.
But in addition to his joy, Qiao Xun had to think about how the future society will evolve and how he should face it.
Honestly, this is the hardest thing to think about. The career plan in the college era and the career report in the work era are both annoying and hard to understand, not to mention this kind of thing.
This kind of thinking seems meaningless, but it is also a psychological adjustment method in the face of the unknown.
He is a doctor after all, trying to use mental hygiene to explain the psychological impact of these bizarre things.
While thinking about this, there was a knock on the door.
Qiao Xun put away the broken Tang Dao on the coffee table, then walked to the entrance and looked out through the cat's eye.
Zhou Sibai, like a gentleman, stood upright outside, smiled and shook his right hand.
This scene is very familiar...
